Patent EP-0232855-A3 (EP)
Title: Method and device for testing wheels of rail vehicles
IPC: G01M17/02
Filed: 1987-02-05
Abstract: The invention provides a method and an apparatus for testing wheel-sets of rail vehicles under loading conditions resembling those occurring in service, in which radial and/or axial forces are introduced into the wheel via the contact point of the wheel and the rings which represent the rail simulating all operational loading conditions. In a particular embodiment of the method and the apparatus according to the invention, it is also possible to introduce additional axial forces into the wheel contact point of one or both vehicle wheels through the rim and the rings which represent the rail on which the wheel runs during the test in addition to the axial forces introduced through the axle. It is possible by this arrangement to test a whole wheel-set of a rail vehicle and so to determined its reliability possible critical areas under operational loading conditions.

IPC: G06V10/143
Filed: 1987-06-26
Abstract: A digital imaging file processing system for 
processing and filing digitized documents is 
disclosed. In the preferred embodiment a distributed 
data processing system (200) implements the invention 
and is comprised of a central computer (202) linked 
to the following components: a document processor 
(206); optical character recognition device (208); 
mass storage devices (210, 212); a printer (214); and 
at least one intelligent workstation computer (216). 
The document processor (206) automatically digitizes 
a stack of documents without the need for user 
intervention. A unique header page is used in each 
group of documents to be digitized, and gives the 
document processor such pertinent information as the 
scanning resolution, whether the processor is to look 
for yellow highlight marks, and the copy quality of 
the documents in the batch. Other information 
includes instructions per the use or non-use of the 
optical character recognition device, and filing or 
indexing instructions. A unique yellow highlight 
mark detection method and means are disclosed. The 
method comprises illuminating the documents to be 
processed with light of different wavelengths and 
comparing the reflected output in volts. The 
 
 
highlight marks can be used to identify the title of 
a document as well as key words therein, and the 
location within the document of the highlighted 
regions. The digitized documents can be classified 
by title, key words or other methods.

Filed: 1987-07-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the travel 
of articles through an article transport mechanism 2 having 
a multiplicity of lines of travel for the articles to 
different destinations 3, which method comprises observing 
the passage of an article past one of a plurality of sensor 
units 1 mounted in series along the lines of travel and 
identifying the identity and/or the destination of that 
article from information passed to the said one sensor unit 
1 from a preceding sensor unit 1, comparing the actual 
travel duration of the article from that preceding sensor 
unit 1 to the said one sensor unit with the expected 
duration of that travel to establish that the observed 
article is a valid article conforming to the identity and/or 
destination information provided from the preceding sensor 
unit 1, transmitting the information of the passage of the 
article and its identity and/or destination to a succeeding 
sensor unit 1 along the line of travel and, where required, 
actuating means 4 for diverting the article onto a different 
line of travel 2 or into its final destination 3 off the 
transport mechanism 2.

sensor assemblies.
Patent EP-0263065-A3 (EP)
Title: Mattress
IPC: A47C27/14
Filed: 1987-09-16
Abstract: A flat core (1) made of elastic material, for example plastic foam, is provided with continuous holes (2). Support beads (3) are placed loosely in these openings (2) and the latter are closed by elastic outer layers (4) which are bonded on on both sides. Thus a mattress is obtained in a simple manner which has a relatively large number of firm support bodies located in a central zone and soft elastic outer layers. On the outside, the mattress corresponds to a customary mattress and can correspondingly be used as any customary mattress. However, with the inserted support bodies, it causes an uneven, punctiform support of a person lying on the mattress with locally increased pressure, which brings about a desired massage effect and, additionally, due to a piston effect favours forced ventilation towards the top. <IMAGE>
